What this is
A personal launcher for the GMIAU bundle suite — a set of browser tools for assembling, auditing and marking up case files. Every tool runs entirely in your browser: nothing is uploaded, and client data never leaves this device. Each tool page carries its own Guide tab with detailed instructions.
Typical workflow
- Open the Tools tab and pick the tool for the job.
- Star (★) the tools you use most — they rise to a Pinned section at the top.
- In each tool, start on its own 📖 Guide tab if it's your first time.
- Process the files locally, then download the result. Close the tab when you're done — client data is held only in memory.
The tools
🧰 Bundle Builder
Compile appeal, application or CoA bundles with a cover page and index.
🧰 Evidence Exhibitor
Exhibit covers, metadata stripping, and WhatsApp / matrix extracts. Sister tool to Bundle Builder.
🧰 Bundle Bookmarker
Add or rewrite the PDF bookmark tree on an existing bundle.
🧰 Passage Picker
Margin-line a bundle PDF to mark the passages you rely on. Sister tool to Bundle Bookmarker.
🧰 Compiler
Turn CMS notes plus an 01 LH/ folder into a bound PDF with a clickable index.
🧰 Filer
Outbound case-file packager — produces a bound PDF or a structured ZIP.
🧰 Auditor
Per-file ownership check plus a missing-document scan. Sister tool to Filer.
The tabs
🧰 Tools
The catalogue. Click a tile to open a tool; click the star to pin it.
⚙️ Config
Pinned tools, launcher behaviour (new-tab, Guide/Donate/Translate buttons), and one
config file: Load config / Save config read and write a
Tools-GMIAU-RB.conf whose launcher section holds your pins
and every setting — one file for everything.
🎨 Settings
Appearance — mode (Light / Dark / Ryan), UI font and font size. These style the launcher only; each tool keeps its own theme.
Tips & gotchas
- Preferences are stored in this browser's
localStorage; Save config exports them (plus pins) into aTools-GMIAU-RB.confyou can keep or move to another machine, and Load config restores them — one file for the whole suite. - Saving merges into a config you previously loaded, so other apps' sections (e.g.
paths.database) are preserved. - This public launcher has no Database tile and ignores
paths.database— that lives in the local desktop launcher only.

★ Pinned
All tools
Configuration file
One config for everything — load or save your
Tools-GMIAU-RB.conf. Its launcher section carries your pinned tools
and every launcher setting (theme, font, size, button choices), so one file carries
the lot to another machine.
No config loaded.
Pinned tools
Pinned tools appear in a ★ Pinned section at the top of the Tools tab,
and are saved in the config's launcher.pinned list.
Launcher behaviour
Stored in this browser's localStorage and saved into your config file's
launcher section. The Donate and Translate buttons show for everyone by default;
change them here just on this device.
Appearance
Styles this launcher only — each tool page carries its own theme.
Light = GMIAU Light · Dark = GMIAU Dark · Ryan = Dracula. Stored in this browser's localStorage; styles this launcher only.
